Atlanta Interfaith Hunger Seder ⏺️

Come to the 14th Annual Atlanta Interfaith Hunger Seder! Presented by the Atlanta Jewish Community Relations Council, the event will again bring together many esteemed area clergy and community members of all faiths during this holy season and contemplative time of year. A festive and bountiful vegetarian meal will be interwoven with a modified Passover seder teeming with compelling information about the prevalence of food insecurity both nationally and in our midst. We will learn about local organizations that are rising to meet this challenge, from grassroots food pantries to public policy and advocacy and the many ways we can all activate and engage in these efforts.

This year, Rabbi Jason Holtz of Temple Kehillat Chaim will lead the seder alongside the Venerable Carole Maddux, who is returning to help guide the program. Many local clergy and luminaries will also offer inspiration and participate in the individual table discussions.

And our children will lead the way. After stealing the show in 2023, Interfaith Atlanta Youth (IAY), under the skilled guidance of Dr. Chris RayAlexander and Rev. Cassandra A. Henderson (Interfaith Children's Movement), will meet for a three-part session and dialogue just before the program. During the seder they will then present Four New Questions about ways their various faith traditions inform and compel them to action around alleviating food insecurity. There is still time for additional area high schoolers and youth groups to participate in this meaningful program.

While many existing partners and organizations are returning, a variety of new allies are joining in support of this year's event. During the hour prior to the program, The Marketplace offers an excellent opportunity to browse, meet people, and learn about the organizations leading the way in our community's efforts to combat food insecurity every day.

So register yourself or your family, donate a seat to someone who is otherwise unable to attend, charge your cell phones to interact with the Atlanta Interfaith Hunger Seder on-site in an environmentally conscious way, and we'll see you there!

AA is a proud community sponsor of this event.
